A Student's Prayer

A Student's Prayer

Open my mind to your grace, O Lord, as I begin my study today.
You are the source of all wisdom and truth:
so guide me along the right path
that I may persevere in my studies and scholarship.
May I learn well what I need to know;
may I understand what I need to learn;
may I remember what I need to explain.
Give to my efforts the success you would have for them,O Lord,
so that I may use wisely the knowledge I acquire
and thus live contentedly in your love and the service of my neighbour;
and in due time, may I receive by your grace, the eternal reward you have prepared for me.
I ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.


Study well girls!
